Packers coach hopeful for trio of injured players returning vs. Bears

The Green Bay Packers could return three major pieces to the lineup on Sunday against the Chicago Bears. Coach Matt LaFleur told Matt Schneidman of The Athletic that he’s “optimistic” that cornerback Jaire Alexander, center Josh Myers and safety Evan Williams will all return from injuries coming out of the team’s Week 10 bye.

Alexander, Myers and Williams missed the Packers’ Week 9 loss to the Detroit Lions.

Alexander injured his knee against the Jacksonville Jaguars and didn’t practice at all during Week 9. Myers couldn’t play through a lingering or worsening wrist injury, and Williams sat out while nursing a hamstring injury suffered in pre-game warmups in Jacksonville.
